I've seen this happen a couple of times and it's always interesting how it generally happens when no one has a matching suit to hit the higher straight flush than the other player. What I do find amazing in my recent experience is that if you want a flush, go for clubs... they always come..... I know it's probability and it's an even chance but in my recent experience it's always clubs!
wow ..... interesting hands .... no one had the courage to bluff and win the hand without bringing the hand to the end .... this hand I had never seen and it is interesting once again to make sure that everything is possible in poker

actualy we both went all in...
Very hard to try a bluff when you are both all-in.
I have not seen this kind of board very often. It is a good thing that you were both all-in because with your cards if the vilain bet on the turn with four clubs out you had not choice than fold.

Still its a pretty standard play to move in there because you never know, the guy could fold. I would push with air in that spot too especially if I have the other guy covered.
But yeah in no limit hold'em you only need 1 card to make a flush or straight flush so it's actually easier to get it in hold'em in a spot like this. In PLO you would need to have 910 or 23 of clubs

These sort of hands are very rare indeed and i cannot remember seeing one for a very very long time. Whenever this happens it is always a good bluffing opportunity and he can only ever call you with the nuts

! Beautiful! It was almost a sequential straight flush ( )! It has been a long time since I made a royal or straight flush last time, partly because I don't play online as much as I used to.
